Rat urine poses such a significant health risk that Abolish Pest Control recommends the use of biohazard suits, complete with gloves and respirators, when removing it. Waste removal experts focus on attics as the main nesting area, using vacuum cleaners equipped with special filters.
Many mouse and rat poisons contain ingredients that can be toxic and even fatal to your pet. These toxins may cause blood clotting problems, nervous system problems, or kidney failure. Signs of poisoning include pale gums, bruising, bleeding from the mouth or nose, seizures, and increased drinking and urination. If your pet has ingested a rodent poison, contact your veterinarian immediately.
